Superbly set with the evocative paintings of Hans Christian Andersen Award–winning illustrator Robert Ingpen, this portrait of the pacifist Native American leader Seattle features the stirring words he spoke when the U.S. government removed his tribe from their lands. His plea to recognize the interconnection of all living things and the importance of caring for the earth still resonates with all who care about the environment and the future of our world, and is presented in its entirety in this oversized picture biography for all ages.
